Dimebag: The Brother

The loss of Dimebag took away Vinnie Paul’s brother, soul mate and one half of a musical bond that changed the face of music forever. The journey back has been a hard road...

"There is so much magic with brothers in music; they just feed off each other,” says Vinnie Paul, looking back on the 20-plus years he shared in bands with his brother. “I could take off on a drum thing and Dime could follow me on guitar and vice versa. In my head I’d know where he was going,” he continues. “Whether it be AC/DC or Van Halen or whoever, brothers have that magic bond. Telepathic is a good word for it. It’s naturally there, and it’s unspoken.”
